He most recently served as the province's Executive Vice Governor. In March 2014, some sources indicated that he has taken on the role of the deputy chief of the General Office serving the National Security Commission, though this appointment has not been officially confirmed. In the past, he has served successively as the mayor of Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang province, the Party Secretary of Taizhou, Zhejiang, the mayor of Quzhou, and the mayor of Sanming, in Fujian province. He also at one point served as the head of the party's Organization Department in Zhejiang. Largely due to Cai's extensive experience working in Zhejiang province, he is believed to be a political ally of President Xi Jinping, who is also the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China.〔 ==Career== Cai was born in Youxi County, Fujian province in December 1955. During the latter years of the Cultural Revolution he worked at a rural commune. He joined the Communist Party of China in 1975. Cai attended Fujian Normal University and graduated in 1978 with a degree in political economics. In the 1980s, Cai served in the General Office of the provincial party organization in Fujian province, gaining a series of rapid promotions. He worked as chief of staff serving provincial leaders, including as secretary to the provincial party chief. Between 1994 and 1997, he pursued a master's degree in law at his alma mater. In September 1996 Cai took on his first major role in local government as the deputy Party secretary and later mayor of the city of Sanming in Fujian province.〔 He was transferred to Zhejiang in May 1999 serving as the deputy Party Secretary and Mayor of Quzhou.〔 Between March 2002 and April 2004 Cai served as Quzhou's party secretary, the top political office of the city.〔 In April 2004 Cai became party chief of Taizhou, Zhejiang; at the time, Xi Jinping was the party chief of Zhejiang province.〔 In April 2007, Cai was promoted to the position Mayor of Hangzhou, the provincial capital, also serving as deputy Party Secretary.〔 In January 2010, he became a member of the provincial Party Standing Committee as head of the party's provincial Organization Department.〔 In November 2013, Cai became the Executive Vice Governor of Zhejiang province. He made the announcement of his change in jobs on his own online microblog account. In March 2014, Cai was said to have been transferred to Beijing to work as the deputy General Office chief of the National Security Commission, a body led by party General Secretary Xi Jinping, though no official announcement was made about this appointment. Given his Zhejiang work experience and his current position and seniority, Cai has been named as a member of the so-called "New Zhijiang Army", i.e., officials who at one point worked under Xi Jinping during his term as Zhejiang party chief. Cai is likely destined for higher office.〔 Since 2014, Cai has appeared in news footage at numerous "study sessions" of the Politburo of the Communist Party of China, suggesting that he is an official of full provincial-ministerial rank and working for the central party organization. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cai Qi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
